    here's some more information on MVP and his release, it has to do with him complaining about black wrestlers not getting a chance.
    Former WWE performer MVP left the company on relatively good terms, but had some heat on him prior to his release due to some racial comments he made. Following Michael Tarver and Darren Young being dropped from Nexus, MVP pointed out to a few people that how all of the African Americans were kicked out of the group quickly, except David Otunga, for obvious reasons.

    You gotta take it from someone who was in the inside who been through it to know what they are talking about. Granted, Tarver isn't good, and Darren Young is too green, but what about the other members? They weren't much better, yet, they got to hang around longer. Why it got to be the black guys who get killed in the movies first?

    mvp should have been elevated to the main event scene in 2008, he was skilled in every category, he could wrestle, he had charisma, he had pressence, and great mic skills, but the wwe never intended on pushing him past the mid card. however jack swagger can get a run, and wade barrett can get a run.

    shelton pushes were legit actually

    shelton was the black lance storm in WWE,,,very good technically but slim to none in the charisma department


    he was mostly used as a tool to make MITB matches more interesting... that golden benjamin angle they did with him coulda worked if he had mic skills

    alot of guys have strong southern drawls that jus dont translate well to the cable audience i guess

    And that's why they should've kept managers around; let them do the talking for guys who are horrible at promos. It doesn't help either that you have D grade comedy writers writing the promos for guys instead of giving them the bullet points and letting them be themselves.

    That's how Rock and Austin got over.

    They actually laughed at and ripped up the scripts that were given to them. They took some of the key points from those scripts and ran with it
